Starting Nov. 1, the use of studded tires can resume, which can be used up until March 31, according to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT).

Drivers stopped to put on tire chains as winter storm drops snow along Highway 138 To quote Game of Thrones, winter is coming, and you’ll need traction to stay on the road.

The season’s first snows in the mountains usually find a lot of vehicles and motorists not fully prepared for significant winter weather driving conditions across the passes. That was the case last night when snow found its way to Snoqualmie Pass. Here is a review of the WSDOT terms used when wintery weather hits Cascade pass highways.

When traction tires are ‘advised,’ traction tires are not required but recommended. In addition, oversized loads are prohibited and over-sized vehicles may be restricted from roadways during severe winter weather conditions. If the snow is really coming down and accumulating, chains may be required. When tire chains are required, vehicles must install chains to continue traveling on the roadway. Four-wheel and all-wheel drive vehicles do not need to install chains at this point, but must still carry a set inside their vehicle in case conditions worsen.
